Definitions

  • the present invention relates to fabric softeners and washing detergents comprising water soluble b-glucan for treating and softening textiles and fabrics derived from cellulose and/or protein-based fibres, and a method for treating and softening such textiles and fabrics.
  • Fabric softeners help keep clothes soft and colorful. While many people use fabric softeners when they do their laundry, most are unaware of the chemicals that are included in such softeners. Many softener manufacturers don’t specify the exact compounds they use to help soften fabric. Unfortunately, many softeners are made from a wide mixture of chemicals that can have potentially hazardous effects on the human body over time.
  • Fabric softeners are either a liquid that you pour into the rinse cycle of your washing machine, or a sheet that is thrown into a dryer with your clothes. Both contain compounds that are especially harmful to children. Fabric softeners also often contain a cocktail of non-renewable petroleum-based chemicals, which are not easily biodegradable and can become highly toxic to aquatic life once they're washed down the drain. Studies have shown that certain chemicals found in fabric softeners are likely human carcinogens, developmental toxicants and allergens that can contribute to eczema. Since fabric softeners are designed to stay in your clothes for extended periods of time, such chemicals can seep out gradually and be inhaled or absorbed directly through the skin.

  • Cellulose is a polymer of b-D-glucopyranose, which forms linear chains consisting of b-1 ,4-linkages between the b-D-glucopyranose residues. Because of this structure it has a high affinity for itself and forms extended and stable fibrils, which themselves form into fibres via hydrogen bonding of hydroxyl groups on the b-D-glucopyranose residues.
  • Fabrics containing cellulose fibrils and fibres are well-known and include cotton, fabrics based on flax (linen), hemp and jute fibres as well as viscose and rayon textiles, which are derived from regenerated cellulose.
  • the other material types that can be advantageously treated using water-soluble b- glucans are those comprising mainly proteins, which are well-known to be polymers which are polypeptides.
  • Polypeptides or proteins are a class of nitrogenous organic compounds having large molecules composed of one or more long chains of amino acids, bonded together via“peptide” bonds. Proteins are produced naturally as essential components of all living organisms, and particularly in animals as structural components of body tissues such as muscle, hair, etc. Fibrous proteins such as wool and silk are used in fabrics.
  • protein rich feathers are often used in stuffing pillows, duvets and coats and in such applications can also be advantageously treated using water-soluble b-glucans
  • b glucan is a polymer comprised of b-D-glucopyranose, but unlike cellulose, which comprises 100% b-1 ,4-linkages, cereal derived b-glucan comprises a mix of b-1 ,3-linkages and b-1 ,4-linkages.
  • Oat and barley derived b-glucan is water soluble and consist of primarily b-1 ,3-linkages and b-1 ,4-linkages.
  • Oat b-glucan in particular consists of about 70% (1 4)-linked and about 30% (1 3)-linked b-D- glucopyranosyl residues organised in blocks of (1 4)-linkage sequences (cellotriosyl and cellotetraosyl cellulose-like segments) separated by single (1 3)-linkages, as shown in Figure 3.
  • 1 ,3:1 ,4 ⁇ -D-glucan is a linear, non-branched polymer molecule and is soluble in water; however because of the mix of linkages, it does not spontaneously form fibrils like cellulose.
  • Naturally occurring forms of b-glucan can have a molecular size of up to two million daltons.
  • the softening process may comprise adding the b-glucan to the textile as part of a washing detergent, or a conditioning or softening formulation, of the types typically added to washing machine regimes, as well as in hand-washing of clothes and fabrics such that the b-glucan is present in the formulation at levels ranging from 0.005 - 5 wt.- %, preferably 0.007 - 2 wt.%, more preferably 0.01- 0.5 wt.-% (calculated based on the total weight of the formulation).
  • a machine wash for example between 10-100 ml or grams of the formulation which includes b-glucan, more preferably 30-80 ml or gram of the formulation, is optimally added for each washing load containing typically 3-5 kg of textiles and fabrics.
  • the samel 0-100 ml or gram of the formulation, more preferably 30-80 ml or gram of formulation will optimally be added to each 2-5 kg of textiles or fabrics.
  • the b-glucan dosage on the actual fabric will therefore range from mere micrograms per kg of treated textile or feather substrate, up to a number of milligrams.
  • higher treatment levels using b- glucans is also beneficial (up to 20 gram per kg levels of treated fabric), but is economically less attractive.
  • the b-glucan used in the formulation may comprise at least 50%, at least 60% or at least 70% of the b-d-glucopyranosyl residues being joined by 1-4 linkages. Preferably the remainder of the linkages are 1-3 linkages.
  • the b glucan may comprise at least one of oat b-glucan and barley b-glucan (i.e. that is b-glucan extracted from oat or barley grains).
  • the b-glucans may have an average size of at least 50,000, at least 100,000, at least 200,000, at least 400,000, at least 800,000, at least 1 ,200,000 or at least 1 ,600,000 daltons. Processes which describe extraction of long chain b-glucans, and any subsequent control of size are set out, for example, in EP 1 363 504 B1 , EP 1 706 001 B1 and GB patent application 1501799.9.
  • the textile fabric to be treated may be derived from cotton, linen, viscose, other cellulose rich fibres, and/or from protein rich materials including silks, wools and feathers, or a mixture of cellulose fibres and protein rich materials.

  • the binding of soluble b-glucan molecules may further be increased by binding of the cellulose or polypeptide polymer chains to the cellotretraosyl ends of the b-glucan, and consequently, the ability of b-glucan to affect the properties of cellulose-based or protein-based fabrics may be increased by subjecting the b-glucan to treatment with a b-0-(1-3) glucanase prior to being added to the fabric. This will increase the number of b-glucan chains with free cellotretraosyl ends and thereby increase the number of cellulose or polypeptide polymer chains which may be bound by any given b-glucan chain.
